IANAL, but don’t think this is correct. I thought that “disposition” in this sense usually referred to the completion date of whatever the penalty is. The conviction or sentencing dates are usually not included in the disposition date.

For example, what if the penalty were greater than 5 years? It wouldn’t be logical to be able to acquire a LTC while still in the penalty phase or under probation, would it?
If the penalty was greater than 5 years it would be due to a felony. A class A misdemeanor in Texas is punishable by up to a year in jail and or up to $4,000.00 fine. A misdemeanor can be probated by up to 2 years.
